What organizations and their departments offer work from home jobs/ opportunities?
I often hear of people in work from home opportunities but I find them so rare to come across. What sites / resources do you use to find remote work opportunities? Which companies still do work from home?
Also please list the country the jobs are out of if you can.
I'm a software engineer, and WFH seems pretty common now in my industry. USA.

I used Remote Rocketship to find a remote job. It's pretty decent.
I'm an in-house graphic designer at a market research agency in The Netherlands. I wfh for 3 of the 4 days a week that I work.
Do you have a 4 day work week or are you on reduced hours?
If you're on the 4-day, how do you like it and how's the workload?
I don't really understand what you mean but the normal fulltime week is 40 hours here. I work 32 hours so I can have a say with my daughter. My gf does the same so my daughter goes to daycare for three days a week.
I love the 4 day workweek. The workload is fine, especially because I'm wfh. I can focus better and it saves me 3 hours of commuting a day.
Here in Germany many programming jobs, maybe even most, offer WFH these days. Sometimes you need to be in the office for 1 or 2 days a week, but often it's fully remote. I work at a software development agency in a large city, but live in a village about 2.5 hours away. Haven't been to the office for like 2 years.
Beautiful!
I've had two work from home positions - one basically a call center position, the other was an admin clerk job. I got both through what is effectively a recruitment agency.
I'm a bit of an outlier as I've been WFH since 2001 as a software developer in the UK. The first company was new when I joined and we decided not to have offices, the second knew it was part of the deal. To put things into perspective, I was on dialup for the first year. First DSL was .5 megabit, which was about 10x faster.
I work in IT (Database Administrator) and have been mostly remote since COVID. USA.
Voice/Network Support Engineer in the US here. They frowned about WFH and wanted us hybrid, but also figured out no one really wants/needs to come in - so they decided to not renew the office lease and now I’m full time WFH.
A lot of tech jobs (developers, sysads, etc.) that only require a laptop to work have fully remote opportunities. Jobsites like linkedin show if a position is full-time, remote, or hybrid. I haven’t tried, but you can probably add a filter to the search function to only pull up remote jobs. Your best bet IMO is a laptop-based job on a global company, because a more scattered workforce means less chances of gathering together and more opportunity to push for wfh.
I work in office, but i also get to wfh when I'm sick, having an off day, or have an appointment mid day.
I'm a Substation Designer, working with CAD. Any jobs that use CAD are going to have more at-home opportunities.
Many jobs in Finance (Accounting Finance, not customer facing like banking) are remote at this point because they’re all done via email, spreadsheets, PDFs and corporate systems, none of which require a physical presence in an office building.
Work for a broadcaster in the UK in one of the back office support roles. We can all work from home for 2 or 3 days every week and the other 2 or 3 in the office.
It was initially ‘suggested’ post-Covid but from January it will be mandatory to do it as people were not sticking to the suggested days.
